A Rich Tradition of Conservation
In 1961, African Wildlife Leadership Foundation, Inc., later African Wildlife Foundation (AWF), was established to focus on Africa’s unique conservation needs.
Where We Work
There’s as much hope as
there is natural beauty
Just as the land across Africa is vast and varied, so are the ecological and economic challenges. While some nations contend with political tensions, others must ease the struggle for resources between people and wildlife. Despite these issues, Africa is a continent of great potential. Opportunities abound for improving the lives of Africans and wildlife. At the African Wildlife Foundation, we’re working throughout the continent to do just that and help Africans chart a course toward a sustainable future. For we recognize that while every country, community, and region in Africa has different needs, they all want the same thing: an Africa that’s thriving for all.
